Here's some context for that NullPointerException:
MediaFileDirectory directory;
if (StringUtils.isNotEmpty(this.directoryId)) {
directory = manager.getMediaFileDirectory(this.directoryId);
} else if (StringUtils.isNotEmpty(this.directoryPath)) {
directory =
manager.getMediaFileDirectoryByPath(getActionWeblog(),
this.directoryPath);
} else {
directory =
manager.getMediaFileRootDirectory(getActionWeblog());
}
this.directoryId = directory.getId(); // this is line 185
It appears that, perhaps, you don't have a media file root directory
for your weblog and therefore directory is null. Can you tell some
more about your install? Was it an upgrade or a fresh install?
